obama. so this is a case, maybe, of a gray beard coming in to steady an administration that's a little shaky? >> possibly. john podesta is certainly a washington insider. he has great connections both from his nonprofit which has been able to be successful because of those connections but also through the relations he established under the clinton administration. someone who has connections where the president doesn't that he could reach out and maybe help particularly moving forward in the pr campaign to try to make the affordable care act look a little bit better. jon: we'll see if they get a steady hand on the tiller. thanks for coming in. jenna: new concerns for obamacare this hour, a brand new survey showing that less than two weeks before a very critical deadline, most americans still have more questions than answers when it comes to the controversial law. our kate rogers is a foxbusiness.com reporter and joins us more on this. >> reporter: hey there, jenna. well, the deadline for the
